Baskin Lab researchers have uncovered the surprising role played by a “three-tailed” fat molecule in cellular survival during heart attack and stroke: protecting the cells against damage when oxygen runs out. https://t.co/pLiotkshe0
Research led by @weillinstitute postdoctoral fellow Megan Keller in @DoerrLab reveals how sugar-phosphate buildup disrupts cell wall synthesis, offering clues to fight drug resistance. https://t.co/6OFTOE8fve
We’re thrilled to announce our Weill Institute 2025 Emerging Scholars –– eight outstanding grad students & postdocs selected for their innovative research, from institutions across the US and Canada. We'll welcome them to Cornell’s campus Oct 13–14, 2025. https://t.co/jtrI6Sc1ow
📢 Attention antibiotic tolerance researchers! Our GIANT review of 50+ years' of clinical antibiotic tolerance data is now available online in Clinical Microbiology Reviews. Check it out here: https://t.co/48CPcY8jL9

Congratulations to Dr. Manuela Alvarado Obando for an amazing PhD defense seminar! Felicidades, and on to more greatness! @CornellMicrobio @ManuelaAlv95 https://t.co/c9oi3ugwkQ If you are looking for an exceptional postdoc (and are in the greater NYC area), reach out to her!
Latest preprint from our lab led by grad student @cassidyprints and her undergrad mentee @IsabellaNLin. She examines conservation and features of the programmed ribosomal frameshift in prfB. Presented by Cassidy at #GRC stress!

What a phenomenal seminar today at @CornellPathogen by @Hatzios_Lab — a tour de force of using chemical proteomics to discover new mechanisms of redox signaling in gut infection!🤩🤩🤩
Our new paper out in @PLOSPathogens today: https://t.co/K68SlqMCjc We find that resistance/tolerance to antimicrobial peptides is slightly more complex and dynamic than your "average" antibiotic resistance. Nice work by @AndyMurtha et al.!
We demonstrated a lowcost device that can detect deadly bacteria in drinking water. It shows, once again, that worldclass research can flourish in Nepal, despite limited resources. Here is news release by
@OpticaWorldwide
highlighting the important result. https://t.co/1red1v7BR2
Announcing the 2025 Bacterial and Archaeal Cell Biology and Development @GordonConf. We have amazing speakers and discussion leaders confirmed and look forward to (again) having our minds blown by all the remarkable science. Applications will start being accepted in the fall.
And that concludes our workshop in Nepal! Successfully cloned NDM carbapenemases? Check! Isolated bacteria that can eat styrofoam and motor oil from Bagmati River AND fluoresce under UV? Check! @rajbhandari_33@karmamonima@guavadk@utsavRIBB@AnkitSh03786959
I asked AI to draw an image of the bacterial OM. This is what it came up with. My lab better pivot to the new hot field of outer pemmoccan homeostasis! And how is that one otter equally distributed among daughter cells? Lots of cool open questions!
What an honor for @cassidyprints and @CornellMicrobio to host Dr. @Nancy_Craig777 for our distinguished Portraits of a Microbiologist series. Thanks for returning to Wing Hall for such a moving and inspiring visit!
